Ed is a great presenter. He gets the audience involved and interacts well. Probing, informative, on top of his game and sure to please.These are the reasons we have had Ed back for a second presentation. Our members commented, ” he was only on for an hour, not enough time, get him back!”
Ed made the closing keynote at the Mid-Atlantic Society of Association Executives’ conference. As an association executive, I found his presentation to be both entertaining and extremely relevant!
Ed is a champ. He’s a passionate keynoter that delivers immediately usable content in an exhilarating and entertaining manner. He’s completely relevant to the challenges we deal with today in business. My groups had a wide age range and Ed was able to connect with each of them. He over -delivers on promises and he’s inspiring to interact with. I received so much value from Ed, I used him multiple times.
I highly recommend Ed Rigsbee.
Mr. Rigsbee is very knowledgable about the strategic business alliance literature and its practice. I am currently writing my doctoral dissertation about alliances and his generous support motivates me during this process. His professional wisdom, guidance, and creative nature make me realize that I am doing the right job for my career. He is a great mentor. I am very privileged of meeting him. It has been a great experience to talk with him about the the world of business alliances. His years of expertise is outstanding and most importantly he is excellent in describing complex literature in a very simple and basic frame. I know that only great teachers can do this. Thank you Mr. Rigsbee.

Ed truly understands that in the complex and ever escalating velocity of changes in the global economy success is not going to be a solo activity – but rather the alliances we build will ensure our longevity. When good is not good enough and excellence is the new parity – talk to Ed because he takes it up a notch and delivers brilliance.
This presentation showed his knowledge about building collaborative relationships and opened the eyes of our members to strategic alliance in a whole new way. It was beneficial that Ed came into the meeting fully prepared on our membership because his comments were relevant and therefore more meaningful; which added greatly to the take home value.
